Writing equation in a Taylor Series?

Im writing this script, and my outputs dont come out. My count variable produces a number, but Difference outputs NaN and Estimate always outputs - Inf after i run the code. My equation for the Taylor Series is under the variable 'Estimate' from the pdf. Do i need a Previous=Difference line in there also or is that unnecessary?

No, you don't need the previous=difference line, it's wrong. Also count starts at 1 in the formula but at 0 in your code.
There are also errors in your first while loop. Can the expression ever become True? Or does it change inside the loop?

The difference is the difference between the Taylor sum for i = n and i = n + 1; you compute this correctly as
Difference=abs(Previous-Estimate);
However, if you set
Previous = Difference;
you do something wrong, because previous is no longer the result of the previous estimation. Without this line and count = 1 the estimation works fine.
